Even though there are so many ways to make online donations like GoFundMe, Give, Facebook, etc., all of them functions as a one-way lane. Why? Because you cannot track the final destination of your donations but only can hope that it should have reached the intended recipient. How can you make sure that you are donating a real case? Very difficult. Right? Besides that, all these fundraising platforms either deduct a flat rate or a certain percentage of the donation amount as transaction fees.

Have you ever heard about 'Facebook donations'? Facebook provides the option for creating campaigns either for the personal or social cause. But, the feature is available only for selected countries like US, UK, Canada, Australia, etc. Even though there is no fee for the charitable donations, it deducts up to 7% of all the donations that are made towards a personal cause like medical expenses, clearing debts, etc. Do you know what is the main limitation of Facebook donations? The donations are processed and will be transferred to the recipient's bank account only if it reaches the minimum payout. So, Facebook donations may not be effective for creating personal fundraising campaigns because of the high transaction fees and long processing time.

Based on a news report, a musician named B.o.B has started a fundraising campaign on GoFundMe to prove the fact that Earth is not sound. Sounds funny? Yes. But the goal of the campaign is to raise $1 million. The campaign was running for few months, but it has been put on hold by GoFundMe recently to make sure that the funds are utilized properly. Does this kind of projects really make some sense?

How to make the process of online donation more flexible, secure and trustable? Giftcoin provides an innovative solution to get rid of the limitations in online donations. It is a blockchain based platform which aims to revolutionize the existing concept of charitable donations by making every transaction 100% secure.
